Due to a genetic modification, a mouse has no horizontal cells in its retinas. What impact will this have on the mouse’s vision?

Karolina [17]

Due to a genetic modification, a mouse has no horizontal cells in its retinas and it does not expresses the connexin26.

What is horizontal cells?

The horizontal cells has receptive field with the neurobiotin and controlled by the electrical coupling.

Horizontal cells are the laterally interconnecting neurons having cell our bodies withinside the internal nuclear layer of the retina of vertebrate eyes. They assist combine and alter the enter from a couple of photoreceptor cells.

An inhibitory stimulus has occurred. B. Chemically gated potassium channels have opened. C. Excessive potassium has diffused out

andrezito [222]

Given question is incomplete. Complete question has been attached.

Answer:

C. Excessive potassium has diffused out causing hyperpolarization.

Explanation:

The nerve action potential can be divided into following stages:

Stimulus is detected by the cell in resting stage.
Sodium channels in the membrane open from where influx of sodium ions occur which is called depolarization
After a while, sodium channels close and potassium channels open from where efflux of potassium ions occur which is called repolarization.
The membrane potential further lowers due to continous efflux of potassium ions which is called hyperpolarization.
After a while potassium channels close and membrane returns to its resting stage.

In the given figure, stage 4 depicts hyperpolarization because the membrane potential has dropped to the lowest point below -70mV. Hence, option C is correct.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: Metabolic alkalosis

Explanation: Metabolic alkalosis refers to a metabolic condition in which the tissue’s pH is increased above the normal range (7.35–7.45). This occurs as a result of decrease in the concentration of Hydrogen ion, which results to increased bicarbonate in the body system. It can also be caused by direct increase in the bicarbonate concentrations.
